SIDNEY;     850 276 9356 LYNN
NOT GUILTY DESPITE ACCIDENT

It was in the middle of the night when I filled out the “Free Consultation” form on this website and within minutes I got a call from Joe himself, polite and re-assuring. Even with minimum time to prepare for the case next morning he was there in court ready to go. He explained my options clearly, did not give me false promises or hopes and did not make decisions for me. He is well respected in court and knows everyone there. During the entire process he never made me feel like I had to do it alone.  

I was in a crash and rode for a while on a flat tire. After witnesses told the cop where I was, the cop first found the tire then found me stopped in the middle of the road. I was unsteady on my feet, smelled of alcohol, failed all the field tests and then fell over to the ground when I bent to tie my shoe lace.

 Result: Not Guilty- Judge ordered my license immediately restored.

"JOE WAS ALWAYS THERE FOR ME, MADE ALL THE RIGHT CHOICES
AND GOT ME A NOT GUILTY"
 
RYAN:     508-837-4593 FALL RIVER
BAD ACCIDENT, HIT POLE,
KNOCKED OUT POWER TO AREA
NOT GUILTY 2ND OFFENSE

Ryan struck a utility pole, snapped it in half and cut power to the whole area. His car rolled over and three cops had to bend the metal to get him out.  He failed the one leg stand test, the alphabet, the walk and turn and the backwards counting test. Then he admitted to the cop he had just had four beers, the last one an hour ago and had nothing to eat all day but breakfast.  Plus, he had slurred speech, bloodshot, glassy eyes and smelled of alcohol. Jury: Not Guilty 2nd offense.

CLIENT'S THANK YOU NOTE: 

"Joe, I interviewed several attorneys to represent me and NO ONE WAS EVEN WILLING TO GO TO TRIAL!  I liked how direct you were with me and never blew smoke or led me to believe there was no risk involved.  Your informed advice gave me the knowledge to make the correct decision. I  highly recommend you to anyone facing an OUI charge." 

"I FELT WELL REPRESENTED ALL THE WAY FROM JURY SELECTION
TO YOUR IMPRESSIVE CLOSING ARGUMENTS."

OUI-DRUGS - 3RD OFFENSE
BAD ACCIDENT- CHARGES DROPPED

I told cops I’d taken 3 drugs. They videoed a drug expert testing me for 45 minutes. I looked totally out of it!  My urine sample showed 7 metabolites of those same 3 drugs. Joe made no promises and didn’t sugar coat anything. But be careful, this man will save your life! He did mine. I looked at his track record, client testimonials and checked with other lawyers and detective friends. I found he is highly respected by his peers. When in court, he worked it like an artist, First he noticed my Miranda form had not been done correctly and got all my statements thrown out. Then he wrote a Memorandum argung the urine test should be suppressed too. Incredibly, the judge agreed. The DA had so little evidence left he dropped all charges on the trial date.

.25 BLOOD TEST – BAD ACCIDENT- 3RD OFFENSE
3 COPS TESTIFY 'UNDER THE INFLUENCE'
NOT GUILTY

I ended up on the REAR lawn of a house after hitting a pole and going through a fence. They drew my blood at the hospital and it was .25: more than three times the legal limit.  I was charged with my 3rd offense.  Joe --incredibly --gets the blood result thrown out. At jury trial, his Motion to exclude ALL the medical records was allowed when he showed the DA hadn’t complied with the law. He just kept chipping away at their case until there was nothing left.  

"JURY OUT LESS THAN AN HOUR.
HE'S FANTASTIC AT WHAT HE DOES."
 
MARK:     781 801 3399 PEABODY
CASE DISMISSED DESPITE BAD ACCIDENT

My SUV rolled over and ended upside down on a guard rail. Police report said I had an "overwhelming" odor of alcohol on my breath. I was taken to a nearby hospital and blood was drawn. I saw Joe's website and called some of the clients he represented. They all said I would be in good hands and they were absolutely right.  He obviously knew what he was talking about since the DUI case was dismissed. I would absolutely recommend him to anybody facing these charges.

No criminal record, no fines, no license loss
 
CHARLES;      978.621.1744 WOBURN
2nd OFFENSE: 3 YEAR REFUSAL SUSPENSION REVERSED
NOT GUILTY ALL 3 CHARGES DESPITE ACCIDENT

Charles' license was suspended 3 years for the refusal. I advised him how to fight this at the RMV in the required 15 day period and then appealed to a judge in court. The judge ordered the 3 year suspension lifted so he was able to drive while we proceeded to trial. There, I showed the jury medical records indicating he suffered a concussion in the crash and argued that even though it was his fault, the balancing tests were done at 11 PM after a workday on a ramp leading up to the highway.

CHARLES' TESTIMONIAL:

"From the second Joe took my 5 AM call to my acquittal at trial, he was on top of every detail. What could easily have been a 5 year license loss became a NOT GUILTY verdict. He was articulate and organized in court, systematically shredding the DA's claims one by one.  He convinced the jury there was insufficient evidence despite the testimony of 2 state troopers, 2 failed sobriety tests and an accident. "

3 YR REFUSAL SUSPENSION REVERSED WHILE CASE PENDING
ROLLOVER ACCIDENT - 2ND OFFENSE
NOT GUILTY: BOTH OUI & NEGLIGENT OPERATION

'You didn't yes me to death like other OUI lawyers I spoke to or give me false hopes we'd beat the case. You actually told me it'd be a hard case to win and presented the worst case scenarios too. I couldn't believe it when you got my license back a few weeks after I refused the Breathalyzer. Instead of suffering through 3 years with no license, I was driving to and from Court legally while the case took 16 months. During trial, you had an answer for everything and even made the DA look silly. Plus you continued working at the defense table when everybody else went out to lunch! It was like watching something out of a movie. I can't thank you enough, Joe.'

See judge's order restoring license.

NOT GUILTY

'The passengers in the other car said I crossed the center line and came right at them.  I admitted it was all my fault and they testified I was drunk and acting bizarrely when I approached their car to apologize. I also told the cops I had taken a couple of pills in addition to the alcohol. The days I spent in Court with Joe I was impressed with his intelligence.  He is an outstanding professional.

HE BEAT MY 2 OUI CASES 10 YEARS APART
ONE WITH A BAD ACCIDENT

In '03, he won a motion to suppress the stop of my car so all evidence was thrown out and the case was dropped. In '13, I was in a bad collision and both vehicles were totaled. At jury trial, the cop testified I had slurred speech, swayed and admitted drinking 3 beers [but a six pack missing 5 beers was found in my truck]. Joe got all my statements after Miranda thrown out, convinced the jury the accident wasn't my fault and asked them to consider why the cops never made a video of me with their cameras at the station or the cell phones in their pockets. Pretty smart.  Not guilty!

'HE ASKED THE JURY WHY COPS NEVER MADE A VIDEO AT THE STATION OR USED THE CELL PHONES IN THEIR POCKETS'
 
BRANDON;      FALL RIVER
3RD OFFENSE; ACCIDENT
MANDATORY JAIL AND FELONY CONVICTION AVOIDED

'The facts of my case were not good at all. I admitted drinking shots and even told the cop I didn't know how many I'd had. On the day my case was scheduled for jury trial, Joe managed to negotiate a deal where no jail was involved and no felony conviction. He's an exceptional lawyer and has obviously been practicing DUI defense a long time.   I strongly recommend him to anyone who finds himself in this kind of trouble.'

NOT GUILTY 3RD OFFENSE
DESPITE BAD ACCIDENT

Client drifted into opposite lane of travel and struck another car moving it fifteen feet. He failed all three field sobriety tests and was arrested. At trial, the other driver and two officers testified they thought he was under the influence of alcohol. Verdict: not guilty. No mandatory jail term, no 8 year loss of license, no $15,000 fine, no probation.

& NEVER MADE ANY FALSE PROMISES'
 
BRANDON;     774.994.3136 BOSTON
ACCIDENT-
OUI-DRUGS CHARGE DISMISSED AT TRIAL

After a two car crash, while at the police station client admitted he had been smoking marijuana shortly before driving. Plus, drug paraphernalia was found in his truck. At my Motion to suppress evidence, I proved that he had not been Mirandized properly and the judge threw out all his statements. At trial, the DA agreed they couldn't prove it without his statements and dismissed the charge.  No conviction, no license loss, no probation, no 16 week treatment program and saved about $2400 in fines and fees.

STACY:     401.585.1822 ATTLEBORO
ACCIDENT; 2ND OFFENSE DISMISSED
LICENSE IMMEDIATELY RESTORED

After a collision on a highway, client admitted drinking. She was unable to say the alphabet past K and failed the one leg stand and walk and turn tests. I recommended trial since the tests were done late at night after a crash in the pouring rain. When the cop failed to show, I convinced the judge to dismiss the case and restore her license immediately.

ALL OVER ROAD; BAD ACCIDENT;
NOT GUILTY SECOND OFFENSE

Client was seen by a civilian to drive "all over the road" and then accelerate head on into a telephone pole. At trial, the cop testified she showed a strong odor of alcohol, her speech was slurred and she had glassy, bloodshot eyes. I obtained the EMT and hospital records and showed the judge during trial there were no such notations on either set of records. In fact, the doctor noted "her speech was normal," no one noted an odor of alcohol or glassy, bloodshot eyes despite her eyes being examined three times with a flashlight shortly after the accident.

'AT TRIAL, HE WAS VERY ARTICULATE & CAPTIVATED THE JURY'

Two detectives came upon Greg having fallen off his motorcycle. A third officer arrived. They all concluded he was under the influence and arrested him for OUI. They reported an odor of alcohol, glassy, bloodshot eyes, slurred speech and unsteadiness on his feet.  

"Joe was attentive and answered all my questions. He paid attention to the smallest details. He fought hard to get a copy of my booking video which basically got me acquitted. He even convinced one of the toughest judges in the state to restore my license immediately. I was told she never does that."

AND TESTIMONY OF 4 WITNESSES.
JAIL & 8 YR. LICENSE LOSS AVOIDED

I watched the videos on Joe's website and hired him right away.  He did not disappoint. During the 2 years it took to reach trial, he answered all my questions promptly day and night. He handled everything very carefully and fought hard to get the booking video which ultimately acquitted me at trial. All of this despite the testimony of four witnesses! I've got nothing but good things to say about him. OK to call me anytime.

CARLOS;     617.642.7062 LYNN
FAILED BREATH TEST (.15)
BAD ACCIDENT
NOT GUILTY 2ND OFFENSE

Client totaled his car and another. He then failed the field tests and the station breath test with a .15 -- almost twice the legal limit.  We immediately drafted and filed a motion to preserve the booking video. This showed the officer failed to observe him for a full 15 minutes immediately preceding the breath test. After four hearing dates addressing this, the judge threw out the breath test. Then, at trial, despite otherwise damning testimony, the trial judge said that the client's excellent appearance on the booking video created reasonable doubt and acquitted him.

WERE ULTIMATE PROFESSIONALS THROUGHOUT"

Sergeant testified she was unsteady on her feet, admitted to "a few glasses of wine," had a strong odor of alcohol and in his opinion was "intoxicated." I stressed there was no slurred speech, no red, glassy or bloodshot eyes and that anyone would be unsteady after an accident. I also obtained the EMT records which did not even mention an odor of alcohol. Point: reasonable doubt.

Client crashed into back of truck, totaled his car, went to hospital. admitted to drinking and his blood was drawn. I successfully kept the over the limit blood alcohol level out of evidence at trial where I argued that although the trooper obtained the contact info of the truck driver, the DA did not summons him so there was absolutely  zero evidence on how the accident happened.

He told the cop he was "watching the GPS on his phone and missed the light."  Police report noted he was confused, had bloodshot, glassy eyes and showed clear signs of impairment. After failing two field sobriety tests and almost falling over, he was arrested. After a judge trial, we won a not guilty.

    Joe got me a not guilty in 2011 but then in 2013 I caused an accident and got arrested again.  The cops testified I would not roll my window down all the way or look at them, was unsteady on my feet, my eyes were extremely bloodshot and glassy and my speech was thick tongued. I admitted to drinking 3 beers, the most recent 1 hour previously. Joe pointed out the conflicts in their testimony and showed a photo that I was wearing 2 lip studs [which could account for the speech issue]. He argued my excellent performance on the alphabet test created the necessary reasonable doubt. The judge agreed. Then he had a Motion ready to restore my license [another battle due to my poor driving record] but Joe convinced him to do that as well.

On the 1-leg stand test, she was unalbe to keep her foot up for more than 2-3 seconds despite multiple tries. On the walk and turn, she took the wrong number of steps out and back, stepped off the line many times and missed heel to toe on every step. At trial, we stressed that the tests were done under an overpass, next to a noisy train line and she was shaken from the accident creating reasonable doubt.

      NOT GUILTY DESPITE BAD ACCIDENT

      Client rear-ended the car in front of him. According to the State Police report, both vehicles sustained " significant damage" and the airbags had deployed in my client's car. The trooper's report indicated his eyes were red as well as bloodshot and he had an odor of alcohol about his breath as he spoke. Both drivers were taken to the hospital and the trooper, who was an accident reconstruction specialist, concluded my client had been traveling "significantly in excess of the 65 mph speed limit." At the trial, I argued the deployed airbags were the likely cause of his red and bloodshot eyes and that an odor of alcohol alone is insufficient proof of impairment. The judge agreed saving my client an OUI conviction.

       
      SALEM
      NOT GUILTY DESPITE ACCIDENT AND OVER LIMIT BLOOD TEST
      My client was in a bad accident and taken to the hospital where a blood draw was performed showing he was over the legal limit. Plus, he admitted he was drinking a beer at the moment the accident happened. At my Motion to Suppress, this statement was thrown out. Then at Trial, the blood result was excluded and we won a Not Guilty on both the OUI -2nd offense and the Open Container charge.

      This 2nd offender was in a 2-car accident, admitted to 3 drinks and muscle relaxers. She had glassy eyes, an odor of alcohol and slurred pseech. On the 1-leg stand test, she was unalbe to keep her foot up for more than 2-3 seconds despite multiple tries. On the walk and turn, she took the wrong number of steps out and back, stepped off the line many times and missed heel to toe on every step. At trial, we stressed that the tests were done under an overpass, next to a noisy train line and she was shaken from the accident creating reasonable doubt. The judge agreed, found her not guilty and ordered the RMV to lift her 3 year refusal suspension

      FAILED BREATH TEST SUPPRESSED

      My client had been in a bad accident, was arrested, took the breathalyzer and registered over limit. After reviewing the test documents, I saw they indicated he had only been observed for 11 minutes before the test, not the 15 that are required. After an extremely hard fought Motion to Suppress Evidence, the judge called for briefs. I submitted an extensive one, along with a transcript of the Hearing. Two months later, the Judge ruled in our favor: the breathalyzer evidence was excluded.

      NOT GUILTY DESPITE BAD ACCIDENT

      Client rear-ended the car in front of him. According to the State Police report, both vehicles sustained " significant damage" and the airbags had deployed in my client's car. The trooper's report indicated his eyes were red as well as bloodshot and he had an odor of alcohol about his breath as he spoke. Both drivers were taken to the hospital and the trooper, who was an accident reconstruction specialist, concluded my client had been traveling "significantly in excess of the 65 mph speed limit." At the trial, I argued the deployed airbags were the likely cause of his red and bloodshot eyes and that an odor of alcohol alone is insufficient proof of impairment. The judge agreed saving my client an OUI conviction.

      CASE DISMISSED ON DATE OF TRIAL

      My client received a Summons in the mail for Leaving the Scene of an Accident. I examined the police reports, accident reports and all related paperwork. My advice: take the case to trial. On the date of trial, the two witnesses said they could not identify for certain who was driving the vehicle. Result: DA dismissed all the charges resulting in no conviction and no license loss for my client.

      NOT GUILTY!
      "AND HE DIDN'T CHARGE ME AN ARM AND A LEG UP FRONT!"

      It was a bad accident. I hit a parked car, drove it onto the sidewalk into a set of stairs and structurally damaged them. Then I admitted to the cop I had “a few." He testified I smelled of alcohol, was unsteady, had bloodshot, glassy eyes and failed the field tests. They even video recorded me doing them [and not very well!] back at the station house. No matter. Joe told me he could win the case at Trial and that's exactly what he did. No fines, no Probation, no alcohol programs, nothing.

      Plus, he went to Court many, many times and charged me no extra money.

      THREE YEAR RMV LICENSE REFUSAL SUSPENSION OVERTURNED IN COURT

      In a bad accident, my client lost control of the car, struck a traffic signal, crossed the center line and ended up in the opposite lane of travel with heavy front end damage. The RMV then suspended him for three years for refusing the breath test. I then appealed the license suspension to a Judge in District Court and convinced the Judge to reverse his suspension so he got his license back while the case was still going on.

      The Judge ruled the RMV "acted in an arbitrary and capricious manner."

      3rd OFFENSE REDUCED TO 2ND: NO 6 MONTH JAIL TERM
      My client blew an over limit .15 breathalyzer after a bad accident. Charged with his third offense, he faced a mandatory jail sentence of at least six months and an 8 year loss of license. I stressed to the DA that his 2 priors were from out of state and the Commonwealth would have a difficult time proving my client was the same man convicted there. The DA immediately agreed with me and reduced the charge. Result: No jail time.

      NOT GUILTY DESPITE ACCIDENT AND OVER LIMIT BLOOD TEST
      My client was in a bad accident and taken to the hospital where a blood draw was performed showing he was over the legal limit. Plus, he admitted he was drinking a beer at the moment the accident happened. At my Motion to Suppress, this statement was thrown out. Then at Trial, the blood result was excluded and we won a Not Guilty on both the OUI -2nd offense and the Open Container charge.

      5 BEERS IN 1 HOUR PLUS ACCIDENT: NOT GUILTY
      My client had caused a bad accident pulling out of his driveway and then admitted to 5 beers in 1 hour. I pointed out to the Judge that he was obviously shaken from the crash, there were 4 emergency vehicles present all with their lights flashing and despite this his performance on 2 of the 3 field tests was still adequate. Result: Not guilty after trial.

      ACCIDENT - NOT GUILTY 2ND OUI
      Joe is the attorney you want to represent you! My husband drove into a cranberry bog at 3 am. I called Joe, and by 6 am he had called me back. From first contact it was obvious that Joe is a true professional and was willing and able to give us expert advice. Joe has made this entire situation much less stressful as he was available to answer all of our questions every step of the way. In court, Joe was very prepared and made an excellent case. He was ready to dispute police testimony and ultimately won a not guilty verdict. We are so grateful for his help, and I cannot recommend him enough!

      2ND OFFENSE 3 YR LICENSE LOSS REVERSED
      'YOU JUST CAN'T BEAT THESE 2 GUYS'

      "I can't thank them both enough. In 2013, Joe beat a prior 2nd offense of mine and also overturned my three year refusal suspension so I could drive legally while the case worked its way to trial. He won that trial as well despite a bad accident.  Then five years later, he did it again. Attorney Dunn came to my house to deliver the order restoring my license because they didn't want me to have to get to the courthouse myself.  You just can't beat these two guys."

      DO YOURSELF A FAVOR & HIRE HIM'

      Attorney Waldbaum is an amazing lawyer. I was charged with OUI-Drugs 2nd offense and 3 drug charges- also my 2nd offense. I caused an accident and my case looked impossible to win. I'm still in shock over how good the outcome was! Instead of a 5 year license loss, I got only 90 days and am eligible for a hardship license. You can call me to confirm all this: Carol, 781.267.0590
